So I decided to do it. I carved a turnip. I found the largest turnip I could find after searching two stores. I saw a clip on YouTube about how to carve a turnip and followed the pattern. The turnip was too small to slap a ZP stencil on, so I went with a standard jack face.

Overall, it wasn't as difficult as I thought it would be. Maybe our turnips here in the US aren't as hardened as the ones in Scotland...Scots are legendary for their toughness. Oh well, I took a crack at it using the traditional knife and spoon method. My Pumpkin Gutter was too large to use on it anyway. Overall, I think it took me about 20 minutes.
